it's not the rachet if it still spins when you manually activate it. Check the pressure on the stabilizer.

The ratchet can be worn or partially broken and still work manually. |

well, i'ts not the ratchet....
I went through step by step and for some reason its the QEV is not letting any air pass through it, I played with the banjo bolt in different ways, but i cant get it to let any air go through.. if i put the stock line back on for the ram eveything works fine ------------- I WONDER HOW I GOT 2 STRIKES? |

you need to research a little on how these things work. ------------- "Too close for missles, switching to guns..." |

Are you connecting the gas input to the "long " side of the QEV, the short side is the Exhaust. Or if you have the adjustable type from palmer it might be screwed in to far hitting the ram/piston inside the cylinder |
